The current wave of the Internet revolution is connecting machines and devices together into smart and intelligent systems. These interconnected devices will work together with unprecedented speed, reliability, flexibility, scale and capabilities. World has already started to embrace Industry 4.0 and IndustrialInternet of Things concepts for different parts of their value chain. Industrial Internet of things (IIOT) represents the future of the supply chain and it’s not too early to prepare for that future. Stellium has set up a digital factory at SAP Co—Innovation Lab, Palo Alto, USA where one can experience the seamless flow of INFORMATION –from ShopFloor to Top floor and MATERIAL FLOW – from Raw Material to Retail Store while intelligently connecting People, Goods, Systems and Machines.
The project exhibits the ‘lights-off factory’ concept, in which production and movement of materials happen automatically. The product movement in the shop floor is decided dynamically by SAP solution by means of auto data capturing. Completion of each activity in the shop floor triggers the subsequent activity, thereby removing manual intervention. The project also demonstrates seamless integration of shop floor PLC with SAP solution without costly middleware or control systems.

ServiceFunction Chaining and OVN - Louise Fourie and Farhad Sunavala, Huawei; John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks; and and Flavio Fernandes, IBM
The ability to dynamically to create and modify service chains of multiple virtual network functions is a critical component enabling the deployment of network function virtualization.
This presentation will show how service function chaining may be added to OVN and how it may be integrated with OpenStack networking service function chaining. It will cover the details of extensions to the OVN schema, the OVN logical flow model, nb-ctl commands. The OVN driver for Neutron networking-sfc will also be described.
While OVN SFC is CMS agnostic, the combination of the OVN and OpenStack SFC will enable the delivery of advanced service chaining use cases with a standard Openstack interface and implementation.
We will provide a short demo to show our initial implementation of SFC in OVN, and go over the future work items in this area. We are very much interested in fostering participation and feedback from folks who use SFC.

Paloalto

Paloalto was a rock band formed in Los Angeles, California. Their band is not named after the city Palo Alto, but rather the lead singer James Grundler's preschool. Their debut album was released on Rick Rubin's American Recordings label and was produced by Rubin. Their second album, Heroes and Villains, reached #14 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart in 2003, on the strength of the song "Breathe In", which had been featured on The O.C.. The song "Try" was the theme song on the 2003 Warner Brothers show "Tarzan".

Palo Alto Networks

Palo Alto Networks, Inc. is a network and enterprise security company based in Santa Clara, California. The company’s core products are a platform that includes advanced firewalls designed to provide network security, visibility and granular control of network activity based on application, user, and content identification and cloud based offerings that extend those firewalls to cover other aspects of security. Palo Alto Networks competes against traditional firewall, IPS and IDS, and UTMvendors including Cisco, Fortinet, Cyberoam, Check Point, Juniper Networks and others.

History

Palo Alto Networks was founded in 2005 by Nir Zuk, a former engineer from Check Point and NetScreen Technologies. Zuk was the principal developer of the first stateful inspection firewall and the first intrusion prevention system. When asked why he started Palo Alto Networks, Zuk cited his objective of solving a problem enterprises were facing with existing network security solutions: the inability to safely enable employees to use modern applications, which entailed developing a firewall that could identify and provide fine-grained control of applications.

Etymology

In choral music for mixed voices, "alto" describes the lowest part commonly sung by women. The explanation for the anomaly of this name is to be found not in the use of adult falsettists in choirs of men and boys but further back in innovations in composition during the mid-15th century. Before this time it was usual to write a melodic cantus or superius against a tenor (from Latin tenere, to hold) or 'held' part, to which might be added a contratenor, which was in counterpoint with (in other words, against = contra) the tenor. The composers of Ockeghem's generation wrote two contratenor parts and designated them as contratenor altus and contratenor bassus; they were respectively higher and lower than the tenor part. From these derive both the modern terms "alto" (and contralto) and "bass".

The Difference between San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and the Bay Area Explained

An Insider's Guide to Charming Palo Alto, California

Get a local's view of the top things to do in Palo Alto, California. From world-renowned attractions to gourmet dining, Creekside Inn is sharing the best insider tips around. http://www.creekside-inn.com/

✈ USA Trip: Silicon Valley & California Route 1 (travel vlog)

We woke up early to do a little tour in Silicon Valley with our rented convertible... but got pretty lost. Also, it was impossible to find parking space around Google or Apple, and Apple Headquarter's merch store was closed for refurbishment. Not our best day.
But fear not, after the disappointment we visited the cool NASA Ames Research Center museum (which also had a closed merch store), and stuffed ourselves at Sam Clam Chowder, Half Moon Bay. Highly recommended. The glittery sand beach and wild seal watching was a bonus for the location!
On our way back to San Francisco we saw some pretty stunning landscapes as well. Good memories overall :)

Service Function Chaining and OVN by John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks

ServiceFunction Chaining and OVN - Louise Fourie and Farhad Sunavala, Huawei; John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks; and and Flavio Fernandes, IBM
The ability to dynamically to create and modify service chains of multiple virtual network functions is a critical component enabling the deployment of network function virtualization.
This presentation will show how service function chaining may be added to OVN and how it may be integrated with OpenStack networking service function chaining. It will cover the details of extensions to the OVN schema, the OVN logical flow model, nb-ctl commands. The OVN driver for Neutron networking-sfc will also be described.
While OVN SFC is CMS agnostic, the combination of the OVN and OpenStack SFC will enable the delivery of advanced service chaining use c...

The Legacy of Fairchild Semiconductor

[Recorded Oct 5, 2007]
Founded in September 1957 in Palo Alto, California by eight young engineers and scientists from Shockley Semiconductor Laboratories, Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation pioneered new products and technologies together with a youthful enthusiasm and manufacturing and marketing techniques that reshaped the semiconductor industry. The planar process developed in early 1959 revolutionized the production of semiconductor devices and continues to enable the manufacture of billion transistor microprocessor and memory chips today. Fairchild was the first manufacturer to introduce high-frequency silicon transistors and practical monolithic integrated circuits to the market. At the peak of its influence in the mid-1960s, as a division of Fairchild Camera & Instrument Corporati...

The Chua Lectures, Part 1: Once Over Lightly

This is the first in an exciting multi-part lecture series with ProfessorLeon Chua, accomplished IEEE Fellow, professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences at the University of California, Berkeley, and pioneer in neural network and Memristor research.
In the series, hosted by Hewlett Packard Labs in Palo Alto, Professor Chua offered a peek into his life’s work, exploring distinct research areas that have all emerged from highly nonlinear and dynamical phenomena, including Memristors, cellular nonlinear networks (CNN), and the principle of local activity and the edge of chaos.
This first lecture, recorded on September 8th, 2015, served as an appetizer for the entire series, Professor Chua covers, at a high level, all his discoveries that are explored in depth as the entire s...

While OVN SFC is CMS agnostic, the combination of the OVN and OpenStack SFC will enable the delivery of advanced service chaining use cases with a standard Openstack interface and implementation.
We will provide a short demo to show our initial implementation of SFC in OVN, and go over the future work items in this area. We are very much interested in fostering participation and feedback from folks who use SFC.

“Energy Medicine” - a presentation by Harry Massey that took place on April 16, 2015 at Silicon ValleyHealthInstitute, Palo Alto, CA.
Energy medicine includes a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic tools that are becoming increasingly popular. Vibrational therapies include homeopathy, hands on energy healing, Reiki, acupuncture, reflexology aromatherapy, light therapy (including laser), sound therapy, music therapy, color therapy, Bach flower remedies, essential oils, qigong, tai chi, yoga, meditation, guided imagery, prayer, EMDR, and EFT (emotional freedom technique). Energy diagnostic tools include MRIs, EKG, CT scans, and ultrasounds.
We are all energetic beings. How the electricity flows is both a reflection of and determines our physical health. Both electrical and chemical gradients guide cell movements using common signaling pathways within the cell1.
Harry is founder and CEO of NES Health Limited, a company dedicated to fostering a 21st-century system of healthcare based on the integration of physics and biology.
As part of NES Health (www.neshealth. com), he invented two health- related clinical technologies: the NES miHealth and NES ProVision. He is the director, writer and founder of ChoicePoint, a feature- length documentary film and social network helping people to first transform themselves and then connecting them with great ideas aimed at solving some of the world’s largest problems.
In 2009, he collaborated with filmmaker GregBecker to produce The LivingMatrix: The New Science of Healing (www.thelivingmatrixmovie.com) to educate and inspire the general public about bio- informational approaches to health and well-being.
He is the author (with Peter Fraser) of Decoding the Human Body-Field and also of Choice Point: Align your Purpose (with David Hamilton, PhD).

Stellium Industry 4.0 Setup at SAP labs, Palo Alto

The current wave of the Internet revolution is connecting machines and devices together into smart and intelligent systems. These interconnected devices will work together with unprecedented speed, reliability, flexibility, scale and capabilities. World has already started to embrace Industry 4.0 and IndustrialInternet of Things concepts for different parts of their value chain. Industrial Internet of things (IIOT) represents the future of the supply chain and it’s not too early to prepare for that future. Stellium has set up a digital factory at SAP Co—Innovation Lab, Palo Alto, USA where one can experience the seamless flow of INFORMATION –from ShopFloor to Top floor and MATERIAL FLOW – from Raw Material to Retail Store while intelligently connecting People, Goods, Systems and Machines.
The project exhibits the ‘lights-off factory’ concept, in which production and movement of materials happen automatically. The product movement in the shop floor is decided dynamically by SAP solution by means of auto data capturing. Completion of each activity in the shop floor triggers the subsequent activity, thereby removing manual intervention. The project also demonstrates seamless integration of shop floor PLC with SAP solution without costly middleware or control systems.

Service Function Chaining and OVN by John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks

Service Function Chaining and OVN by John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks

ServiceFunction Chaining and OVN - Louise Fourie and Farhad Sunavala, Huawei; John McDowall, Palo Alto Networks; and and Flavio Fernandes, IBM
The ability to dynamically to create and modify service chains of multiple virtual network functions is a critical component enabling the deployment of network function virtualization.
This presentation will show how service function chaining may be added to OVN and how it may be integrated with OpenStack networking service function chaining. It will cover the details of extensions to the OVN schema, the OVN logical flow model, nb-ctl commands. The OVN driver for Neutron networking-sfc will also be described.
While OVN SFC is CMS agnostic, the combination of the OVN and OpenStack SFC will enable the delivery of advanced service chaining use cases with a standard Openstack interface and implementation.
We will provide a short demo to show our initial implementation of SFC in OVN, and go over the future work items in this area. We are very much interested in fostering participation and feedback from folks who use SFC.

San Francisco Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

http://www.expedia.com/San-Francisco.d178305.Destination-Travel-Guides
Leave the regular world behind when you step into the fog-swathed “City by the Bay.” From shopping adventures in Union Square to a trip on the city’s legendary cable cars, a trip to San Francisco is bound to leave you with incredible memories.
Stop by Fisherman’s Wharf and indulge in its shops and galleries, as well as some of the best fresh seafood you’ll ever taste. Walk on the Golden Gate Bridge and take in the fresh sea air and views of the bay and Pacific Ocean. If it’s a more serene environment you’re after, pass through the stately architecture and flowing lagoon of the Palace of Fine Arts.
Of course, San Francisco sightseeing isn’t complete without an excursion to Alcatraz, the island prison that once held some of the country’s most notorious criminals. Look into its empty cells and thick stone walls and wonder, could you escape “The Rock”?

✈ USA Trip: Silicon Valley & California Route 1 (travel vlog)

We woke up early to do a little tour in Silicon Valley with our rented convertible... but got pretty lost. Also, it was impossible to find parking space around Google or Apple, and Apple Headquarter's merch store was closed for refurbishment. Not our best day.
But fear not, after the disappointment we visited the cool NASA Ames Research Center museum (which also had a closed merch store), and stuffed ourselves at Sam Clam Chowder, Half Moon Bay. Highly recommended. The glittery sand beach and wild seal watching was a bonus for the location!
On our way back to San Francisco we saw some pretty stunning landscapes as well. Good memories overall :)
